Question 1
Four people come to a river in the night. There is a narrow bridge, but it can only hold two people at a time. They have one torch and, because it's night, the torch has to be used when crossing the bridge. Person A can cross the bridge in 1 minute, B in 2 minutes, C in 5 minutes, and D in 8 minutes. When two people cross the bridge together, they must move at the slower person's pace. The question is, can they all get across the bridge in 15 minutes or less?
Write an alogorithm to solve the puzzle.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Zynga (Austin, TX) in Aug 2022
Interview
(This was apart of the Echtra team at Zynga)
Started with an intro call with the Lead. If you pass that, you move onto the panels; several calls with different people. Overall, took about 2-3 weeks! This was all done online, via Zoom.
Although the first group of interviews didn't show, the lead was extremely professional handling that situation.
